5 Years!
Five years ago on September 20, it began. A roller coaster ride I never wanted to get on. Diagnosis came on September 30, 2015 and rolled on from there. I remember it all, every step, every feeling, every fear. It softens over time but it doesn't disappear. I remember not wanting time to speed by, but in the same breath, wanting time to pass. I wanted to put 5 years between me and IT. So, on this day, 5 years ago, I had that cancer cut out of me. I use this day as my "mark"... this is the day I consider myself 5 years cancer free. 2020 has sucked in lots of ways, but on this day, even during a pandemic, I celebrate and am grateful! And as always, today especially, I say with every fiber of my being...
